While condemning the kidnapping of former primeminister Yousaf Raza Gilani’s son, Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) vice-chairman Shah Mahmood Qureshi said the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) should take notice of the statements issued by the brothers of the victim.
Ali Haider Gilani was kidnapped after an attack on a Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) gathering in Multan.
“If we don’t get my brother by this evening I will not let the elections happen in my area,” his brother, Musa Gilani, had said in televised comments.
The PTI vice-chairman while speaking to journalists said that Gilani’s sons were threatening other candidates through this statement, and such talk was irresponsible.
“The PTI consider it as a direct threat to all other candidates contesting elections, especially from Multan,” he said.
He further said that the PTI will not let the PPP suspend elections in any constituency throughout the country because of this incident.
“I will also personally write to the returning officer about my grievances,” he added.

The son(s) of YRG are so powerful that they have the audacity to say that they will not let the elections happen in their area. So how come that they put the responsibility of providing security to them on the State. They should first ask their father why he just kept busy filling his, and his sons' pockets and not do anything to curb the menace of law and order.
Religion is the most profitable and tax free business in the world. And Pakistanis are masters of it.
